COGWA also may have had a COVID-19 Feast problem.
Brethren who went to Tucson were told to stay home and quarantine today, because some members in Arizona and Texas tested positive after the Feast. COGWA is not sure if they developed COVID onsite or not.
From a reader:
Dave Pack's group isn't the only ones to be hit with the Covid virus, LCG members have started coming down with it too now that the Feast gatherings have ended.
Weston has openly accused and mocked Monson for his stand on face masks and has told the LCG membership that Monson was acting recklessly and tempting God...so, was sanctioning the wearing of face shields in place of a face mask wise, or were you tempting God?
Did the KC members who were wearing homemade face shields that didn't cover their noses and barely came up over their mouths...was that tempting God, was that reckless?
Was having the Feast in a highly populated tourist hot spots wise or was that reckless and tempting God??
Come on presiding Evangelist Weston, your church members are waiting to hear how you justify your actions?? You pronounce condemnation on Munson's group for their faith in God, but look at what your actions have produced!
After exposing his declining membership to potential COVID incubators during the Feast of Tabernacles and after some members have become sick, God's chosen COG leader and his faithful boys in Wadsworth have sent out a letter to the few faithful telling them what to do if they are sick.

Trouble in Dave’s paradise! One week after the FOT some of the RCG members report that they feel sick. No way Dave will ever admit that members of his milking cows, erm ... little flock, have caught COVID. But better safe than sorry. So the members received this yesterday:
Health Reminder
Reports from the various Feast sites across the globe confirm that amidst a unique and challenging year, God’s people experienced an edifying Feast. The best one ever!
By obeying God’s fall Feast command, we got the opportunity to travel to sites all over the world, each reflecting the beautiful and tranquil environment we can look forward to in the Kingdom. Naturally this travel required us to come into contact with those in the general public, and for a longer period, than we might have during other periods of the year. Thus, the risk of exposure to different viruses, including regular seasonal flu and others, as well as the ongoing and resurging worldwide Covid-19 pandemic, was higher.
Now that we are home and with the changing seasons in mind (both in the northern and southern hemispheres), we felt a general health reminder would be beneficial.
Please read this announcement carefully as it provides helpful guidelines on how to avoid illness and how to proceed in case you get sick. Some items on this list might vary from country-to-country, and different local areas:
Preventative Measures:
• Continue to regularly wash your hands (video illustration included). Use hand sanitizer when washing hands is impractical.
• Follow proper cough and sneeze etiquette (video illustration included).
• Maintain six-foot (two meter) social distancing requirements.
• Maintain a healthy diet. Be sure to drink lots of water, and eat vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables.
• Incorporate a regular exercise routine.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, please let your minister know and refrain from attending services to prevent the potential spread of illness. Also consider a medical diagnosis from a professional:
• Fever of 100 F (37.8 °C) or higher
• Cough
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Fatigue
• Muscle or body aches
• Headache
• Loss of taste or smell (that is new)
• Sore throat
• Congestion or runny nose
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Follow CDC guidance if symptoms develop.
As mentioned, be sure to keep your local minister informed if you are not feeling well. He is not a medical professional but may be able to assist if a personal anointing (or an anointed cloth) is needed (James 5:14-15). The Church’s policy on not attending services when feeling sick applies (this covers all contagious diseases).
Remember that God will do His part to help us stay healthy, or heal us when we are sick. He expects us to do our part to prevent any illness and to have concern for our fellow brethren by helping avoid the spread of sickness. Our faith towards God, whether we get sick or not, is important throughout the entire process (Hebrews 11:6)!
We hope that this is helpful as we approach the Sabbath and will assist us in staying healthy moving forward.
Remember boys and girls, if you get COVID there is always this:
